1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The review by Arndt Benecke focuses on chromatin, a major hallmark of eukaryotic life. The dynamic of chromatin and its underlying mechanisms are discussed. In addition, theoretical properties of chromatin associated with transcriptional regulation are presented. In the present brief comment on the review by Arndt Benecke, we wish to provide additional information regarding chromatin structure and in particular on the so-called "histone code hypothesis". We will discuss about the emerging idea that chromatin structure is much more complex than previously thought. The possibility that chromatin modifications may play important roles in biology beside transcriptional regulation will also be put forward.
